THE 8-WEEK JOURNEY OF RETOOLING THE SPIRIT with Gideon Le Roux (INTERNATIONAL)

THE 8-WEEK JOURNEY OF RETOOLING THE SPIRIT
is a guided inner transformation inspired by the elements and seasons of life. Over eight weeks, you move through a sacred cycle—starting with stillness, flowing into renewal, meeting resistance, aligning with purpose, receiving abundance, refining your energy, awakening hidden gifts, and finally grounding into deep integration. Each week invites you to reconnect with your essence through reflection, ritual, and embodied practices—gently retooling your spirit to align with who you are becoming.*

Week 1: Mountain – Stillness, Letting Go & Visioning the New 

In this opening session, we take a sacred pause. Like a mountain that
watches the seasons unfold, you are invited to stand still and look
within. We take stock of what has brought you here—your habits,
patterns, and stories—and begin the gentle process of releasing what
no longer serves. From this space of inner clarity, you begin to dream
forward: What does the next version of you feel like? Together, we
plant those seeds in silence and presence.

Practice: Journaling prompts on what to release and what you are
calling in. Breathwork for grounding and stability.


Week 2: Water – Embracing Flow, Renewal & Flexibility

Water teaches us to yield without breaking. This week, we explore how
to engage life with greater ease and adaptability. Through mindful
routines and intentional rituals, we begin the art of daily renewal.
Spring energy stirs here—movement, curiosity, and a softening of
control. You learn to nourish your spirit not by effort, but by
aligning with rhythm.

Practice: Design a morning or evening ritual; fluid movement or Qi
Gong flow to embody water's gentle force.


Week 3: Wind – Resistance, Surrender & Navigating the Unseen

Wind brings change, sometimes swift and unannounced. This week we
confront resistance—not to fight it, but to understand its message.
Unintended consequences, surprises, and detours become teachers.
You’ll explore how to adjust your sails, moving with life's currents
rather than against them. This is a week for listening deeply and
responding lightly.

Practice: Map your current resistance. Explore where change wants to
happen. Simple breathwork to ride the "internal wind."


Week 4: Heaven – Alignment, Gratitude & Radiant Purpose

This is the midpoint—a moment to pause and look upward. Heaven speaks
to vision, leadership, and the higher self. You will explore what it
means to live in alignment with your deeper values. Gratitude becomes
an act of illumination, reminding you of what’s already flowing well.
From here, you begin leading your life with quiet authority, acting
not from ego but from service.

Practice: Write your "soul soliloquy"—a statement of your current
truth. Daily gratitude reflection. Gentle posture work for openness.


Week 5: Lake – Receiving Abundance & the Quiet Joy of Enough

This is the season of fullness, of harvest. Together we recognize and
celebrate your inner bounty—the small wins, the subtle shifts, the joy
that emerges when you allow yourself to receive. The lake holds and
reflects. You’ll learn how to contain joy, rather than chase it. We
speak of enoughness and the art of letting yourself be satisfied.

Practice: Reflective inventory of “abundance already present.”
Cultivate still joy through guided visualization.


Week 6: Fire – Refinement, Boundaries & Inner Alchemy

Now we shift to discernment. As autumn arrives, what must be released
again? What ideas or energies have served their purpose? Fire brings
clarity—through reflection, digestion, and transformation. You learn
to draw lines where needed, to protect the sacred, and to share your
gifts wisely. This is a week of pruning and preserving.

Practice: Digestive journaling (What’s nourishing? What’s draining?).
Ritual of symbolic letting go.


Week 7: Thunder – Listening, Repair & Awakening Hidden Gifts

Thunder cracks the sky to awaken the soil. In this penultimate week,
you attune yourself to what’s been suppressed or forgotten. We focus
on repairing broken threads—within yourself, your relationships, or
your routines. You listen more deeply. And in the quiet, creativity
begins to re-emerge—not forced, but natural, electric, alive.

Practice: Practice deep listening—inner and outer. Gentle acts of
repair (a letter never sent, a conversation, a boundary honored).


Week 8: Earth – Deep Rest, Integration & Becoming

All things return to Earth. In this final week, we invite full
presence and closure. Death is not an end, but a return—a merging with
something larger. You assess not just what you’ve learned, but who
you’ve become. Through reflection and quiet integration, you anchor
your journey. The unconscious begins to speak. You emerge, not fixed,
but more whole.

Practice: Create a personal integration ritual. Rest deeply. Write a
letter to your future self.

businesses, creating cures using Feng Shui.

Gideons passion is rooted in his innate comprehension of Chi (Qi,
Prana, Energy). In private consultation and treatment, Gideon
interprets in-depth studies of traditional Chinese signs, classical
works such as the I-Ching, the Yellow Emperor’s Classic and the
Confucian primary texts. Recently he has created acupuncture-based

aesthetic approach that yields wonderful results. He has developed a
reputation for gentle, painless acupuncture techniques and serves many patients seeking relief in painful conditions such as sciatica.

His approach with clients is comprehensive in advice. He uses
counselling and tailored strategies, keeping in mind personal
orientations and cultural identification.

Gideon has recently returned to South Africa, his birth country to
assist his parents. With him he brings skills honed abroad in four
continents. Gideon is committed to continuous self-education for the

Besides Chinese Medicine, Gideon is an author and accomplished chef. He has a curious mind, loves people and puzzles. He enjoys nature, walking, swimming, movies but above all his children.

Testimonial Frederik K.
I met Gideon a few years ago in India, during a profound healing journey out of burnout. What began as a chance encounter soon became a turning point in my life. Gideon awakened something deep within me – my spiritual awareness, my connection to inner energy, and the strength to listen to my soul’s voice again.

Since then, he has become not just a guide, but a trusted life counsellor and coach. Whether I'm navigating personal crossroads or professional uncertainty, Gideon’s presence brings clarity. He listens deeply – with rare patience and empathy – and always seems to draw from a Swiss Army knife of insights, metaphors, and tools that invite transformation.

His ability to find the right words, ask the questions that truly matter, and hold space without judgment has helped me realign with my purpose and values. If you're seeking more than advice – if you're looking for someone who will walk beside you as you reconnect to yourself – Gideon is that person.

I’m deeply grateful for his guidance and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone seeking authentic, grounded, and transformative support.
